Usually, collaborating with Bea Goller is a warranty of interesting ‘enjoying-learning’. Inside Sonic Spaces research, recently we made an experiment that shows the data’s flexibility in the digital domain. In other words, with several techniques, the exercise translates a text fragment into a string of numbers depending on a conversion code. This conversion code interprets the form of the text, detecting the Sensitive/Non-sensitive characters, accents and other signs. Conversion is made through Python scripting translating and formatting the text file into a numbers line by line in a text file.

Aquest és el fragment de TXT a convertir:///////////////Thats the Text fragment to convert:

///////////////
*The fragment is the Abstract of the book, Architecture of Indeterminacy by Yago Conde. An interesting and experimental book in the architectonic theory field. Cool, complexe, risky and unconventional. Qualities that suposes on the chosen text, a dedication for Yago for his excellent work.

List is introduced in Processing as a parametric string over different math functions.
The result are different combinations of data visualization, that interprets the form and structure (not semantics) of the original text.
Here is the Processing Sketch >

Jugant amb diferents xifres a les diferents funcions incloent les combinacions de les mateixes, surt una extensa sèrie d’imatges.Interpretació de la estructura i forma del text original en imatge.
Aquí unes quantes :///////////////
Playing with different amounts of numbers inside the functions, appears a pretty big amount of images.Structure and form Interpretation from the original text as images.
Here several of them :

In a similar way that numbers are interpretated as images, from numbers we get sound. With a Pd patch the numeric list is stored in a data memory [array]. From that memory 3 processes are performed:
1] Playing of the data memory as a waveform. The result is a tiny and looped bassline.
2] Interpretation of the numbers in the memory as MIDI values. The result is a melodic sequence.
3] Analyse of the values in the memory depending on certain thresholds. This analysis interpretates the Case Sensitive/Sensitive, and other signs, points and pauses from the original text. The result is a rythm box.
